Are you using a baitcast rod with a spinning reel? If so, you should use a spinning rod with the spinning reel. You can cast a lot further as the line will not bind up on the small eyes. I agree never seen an arig on a spinning reel. Also may try a 5:1 bb1 on a long hvy bait casting rod, it won't give you crank bait shoulders. I'm not a fan of the a rig but will throw one every once in a while. Good fishing to you bud

I do agree, but I did buy a bb1 for throwning rigs like that... I got into throwing cranks and a rigs and bought myself a bb1 to save of myself fatigue. Most money I've ever spent on a reel the bb1. Changed my life lol

I don't think it is guy, most spinning rods have bigger eyes and don't have a finger grip on top of the rod. Also guides closer to the reel. I could be wrong and hate to judge but people will judge videos posted on the forum. But hey whatever works for you
